I recently obtained a Dell t620 that I’ve rack mounted, and I’m using to upgradey homelab. I’m also thinking I should upgrade my routernsince I’m having to reconfigure a lot with the new server(I have a 12 year old Netgear wireless router).

Any recommendations for a rack mounted router?

    You can get Mini-ITX 19" rack mounts.

    IMHO, it’ll use less power than a server, plus, it’s about the right amount of processing power for a router / firewall (I use pfSense, but there are other router solutions out there)

    You won’t want to virtualise / containerise that function, so anything more powerfull can be kept in a separate device.
